Firearm and Tactical Safety Training Courses – Training Centre

Introduction

The new FIREARMS CONTROL ACT 2000 insists that you as the firearm owner, or a person that is going to work with a firearm or new applicant, attend a training course with an accredited Training Provider before you can apply for your competence and/or firearm license.

Magnum Shooting Academy is an accredited Training Provider that can facilitate firearm training in four different categories which are: Handgun, Shotgun, Rifle, and the semi-auto carbine and in many different levels of the National Qualifications Framework (NQF).

Magnum Shooting Academy Trainers

Magnum Shooting Academy plays the role of guiding you in the direction you wish to learn. Once we agree on the correct unit standard(s), we start the training process. You will be asked to complete an open book and a closed book test at the accredited facility. Other than the test on the firearms control act, you will be requested to undergo a practical assessment.

Magnum Shooting Academy and their qualified assessors will assess you the learner and once deemed competent, we will issue you a training provider certificate for the unit standard you have achieved.

You can now apply for what the S.A.P.S call a competence certificate, it’s not a certificate but it looks like a white credit card, with all the person’s details and photo printed on it. The S.A.P.S cannot test you or train you to shoot etc.

Now you can apply for your firearm renewal or a new firearm license. You need to complete the S.A.P.S. criteria laid down and then you will receive a firearm license, also a white credit card type with the entire firearm’s details printed on it.

Magnum Shooting Academy will then upload the assessment results to the SASSETA, where they in turn will issue the relevant learner achievement certificate.

This process may take some time so you should not get concerned. When we receive the certificate we will contact you personally so that you may collect your certificate at your convenience.
